What's it typically look like?  I've never been there.

I’ve never done an opener, but I expected it to be much worse based on pictures I’ve seen.

Cassville decided years ago that school should be canceled on March 1.

That is tame compared to what I have seen in the past! lol I don't do the opener anymore, but when they fall on a weekend there is about double what you see in the pics.

There are only three things in life that are certain : death, taxes, and the wind blowing at Capps Creek!

I've never fished an opening day in my life, but when I was in R.I.,  I used to go to the nearby trout lake on the opener just to watch and drink coffee with a few other fly only guys; always entertaining and I've seen six fish  limits of trout caught on salt water lures with surf casting rods.

I knew a few fisheries people there and asked why they bothered to close the season for only 30 days when almost everything was frozen any way; his answer was surprising to me at the time, it was solely  a money deal, he said they had determined that thousands of people would buy annual permits just to fish on opening day and that they lost all that revenue in the years when the kept the season open.
